Heidelberg

As some of the few major German cities, Heidelberg was spared from destruction during World War II. Today it is a vibrant city with many facets.

Tours

There is much to discover – in Heidelberg itself as well as in the near but also more distant vicinity.
I offer organized tours for individuals and groups up to eight people. I am also very happy to work with my guests on individual arrangements.

About me

A Heidelberger with significant life and professional experience. After various stages at home and abroad, I returned to Heidelberg and found my true destiny in my mid-fifties: an absolutely passionate tour and driver guide.
